Exactly. The quotes look aweful and dodgy. We'd rather stand the erroroneous quotes or ask the person to change his name slightly

noo!! wait, quotes will not appear heheh

Why does it suck?

The quotes are completely optional, and you only need to use them when the username contains a closing bracket character.

I meant that the compulsary ones suck.
I dont want to type [quote="WDZ"] everytime. I prefer the traditional [quote=WDZ]
Like you said the quotes should be optional. I posted my post in reply to Zaheers post and not yours

Tbh the optional quotes are the best. I hope it will be auto included on encountering a name with the closing square bracket "]"

Good job WDZ

Also, from now on, the Quick Quote will wrap the username in quote characters if it contains the ] character.

hehe i know that it is not a realible fix, especially that is compulsory in all cases.

Hopefully MyBB 1.2 will come with an automated wrap for usernames containing ], so that users will not have to enter them manually. But for now there is no way but to do that.

Making it an automated process isn't a little code that you change, it will need somehow a total modification for the the quote function.
